You know farming. We know rural insurance. Let’s work together.
We’ve partnered with New Zealand’s rural communities for over 150 years. Along the way, we’ve learnt a thing or two about making our policies work smarter to cover your farm, business and personal assets.
It’s easy with AgriPlan
There’s no need to manage multi policies for different parts of your life. Now you can customise your AgriPlan policy to suit your farm and everything on it—from your home and boat, other businesses, through to your livestock, equipment, liability and business interruption. Together with your broker or adviser we’ll build an insurance plan that’s just right for you.

For your farm
1
Farming machinery
Keep your farm going if your machinery breaks down. Includes hire costs, while we replace or repair your equipment.
2
Farm buildings and assets
Covers assets such as buildings, fences, sheep and cattle yards. Buildings damaged? We can repair or replace on a square metre basis. Sum insured is used for natural disaster damage.
3
Running costs and missed profits
An unexpected interruption can have a significant financial impact. If your farm buildings or assets are damaged, this provides cover for the additional costs to keep your farm running and can also protect your farm income.
4
Livestock and farm animals
Whether it’s individual animals, flocks or herds, we’ll pay market value if they perish. Theft and escape cover is also available.
5
Farmers liability
Provides cover if you are legally required to pay compensation for personal injury or property damage, including liability arising from farming operations such as grazing animals.
6
Employers liability
Although ACC provides cover for injury, taking out most bodily injury liability exposures, there is some residual exposure for employers that this product responds to.

Statutory liability
Covers defence costs and the cost of fines and penalties ordered against you by the courts, as a result of unintentional breaches of most laws. There is also cover for reparation ordered under the Health & Safety at Work Act.
